Abuja (Core Reporters) The Federal Government of Nigeria has extended its condolences and heartfelt solidarity to the Government and people of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, especially to the families who have lost their loved ones and those whose homes and livelihoods have been destroyed by the devastating impact of Typhoon Kajiki, which resulted in a landslide in Central Vietnam, causing significant loss of life, widespread displacement of communities and severe damage to properties and public infrastructure.
This was contained in a press statement by the spokesperson of Nigeria Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Kimiebi Imomotimi Ebienfa, on Wednesday, August 27, 2025.
